Description
This is not traditional FP&A. This is financial operations designed for operators.
2 Hour Learning is creating a network of schools that functions in a fundamentally different way. Decisions happen daily, execution moves quickly, and financial visibility must match that pace. You will not spend time producing reports on outdated budgets or depending on business intelligence teams. Instead, you will create the models, dashboards, and frameworks that provide operators and leadership with the insight required to make confident, real-time decisions. Your contributions will influence every major initiative—from new school openings to strategic changes—and must be fast, precise, and dependable.
You will be responsible for a live, AI-enhanced finance infrastructure. This includes integrated profit and loss models for every school and business unit. Forecasts that roll forward 12–18 months and remain accurate within 72 hours. Dashboards designed to highlight the handful of variables that truly drive outcomes. You will leverage AI capabilities such as ChatGPT and Copilot to streamline your work and remove friction. This role is not about creating new systems—it is about deploying available technology to deliver results faster.
This position is not suited for operational managers who value rigid structure. It is designed for finance leaders who are tired of slow approvals and organizational inertia. You rely on AI to increase throughput and expect your financial models to inform action, not simply document the past. You will not wait for permission. You will sit at the core of decision-making and execution.
What you will be doing
- Create and maintain live 3-statement financial models for every school and vertical, integrating enrollment trends, workforce planning, and capital expenditure into unified forecasts.
- Refresh rolling 12–18 month forecasts on a weekly cadence using current data, and scenario-plan for both optimistic and pessimistic outcomes.
- Produce executive-level dashboards that operate on real-time data, isolating critical drivers and supporting rapid, informed decision-making.
- Deploy AI tools to enhance analytical speed, identify irregularities, monitor budget variances, and remove manual friction from finance workflows.
- Draft concise financial memos that articulate risk exposure, strategic alternatives, and budgetary impact at a board presentation standard, delivered within 72 hours.
What you will NOT be doing
- Managing lengthy budget cycles or creating reports that sit unused — your forecasts adapt alongside the business in real time, and your outputs influence decisions within days.
- Enforcing cost approval workflows or tracking expense documentation — your focus is on insight and governance, not administrative overhead.
- Relying on business intelligence teams — you own the creation of tools, dashboards, and financial models directly.
- Getting lost in irrelevant detail — your responsibility is to isolate the small number of insights that shift outcomes.
- Developing automation infrastructure from the ground up — you will apply AI tools to speed execution, not construct new technical architecture.
Key responsibilities
Provide continuously updated financial models, forecasts, and dashboards that enable daily operational decisions and strategic transparency across a fast-expanding school network.
Candidate requirements
- Willing to work at least 3 hours of daily overlap with US business hours (08:00 - 17:00 US EST / UTC-5)
- 5+ years in investment banking, private equity, Big 4 corp finance/M&A (not audit), or high-growth FP&A
- Proven experience building integrated 3-statement models tied to U.S. GAAP
- Comfortable delivering investor-grade analysis and recommendations under tight deadlines
- Experience using AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Copilot, Claude) to accelerate financial analysis, document generation, and data processing
Nice to have
- CPA/CFA/MBA certification
- ERP experience in NetSuite, Oracle, or SAP
- Familiarity with multi-site education, facilities, or ops-heavy industries
- Experience with board-level reporting or investor-facing materials
- Experience building AI-automated dashboards or low-code finance tools
- Exposure to high-end service environments with exacting financial standards
